If Esper's going to reverse himself about sending active-duty soldiers home from the Washington, D.C., area, as he apparently is, he should step up and tell us himself, explain his action, and answer questions, not simply let the Army Secretary tell a reporter.

The Almighty does not promise the absence of struggle in this life. That’s why He created us. To test us. So be humble, bear good patience and do the best you can in all things. He will elevate your status. Keep negative thoughts at bay. You’ll get through this!

Email from a conservative friend, who wouldn't have voted for Trump but wasn't sure he could vote for Biden:
"Incidentally, the Bible/Church fiasco was the moment I became a Joe Biden voter...It was bad enough to watch him make a mockery of the GOP. The Bible was a step too far."

Drop expectations. You’ll be happier with fewer disappointments. Learn to expect nothing. If you think people will stop whatever they’re doing to attend to you, you’re wrong. Don’t wait with bated breath. Instead, turn to the Almighty! He won’t disappoint!

The global pandemic is pushing over half a billion people into poverty. Meanwhile the 25 richest people on Earth have increased their wealth by $255 billion. We need international solidarity. We must address the grotesque level of wealth inequality that's getting worse every day.

It's grim out there, but you know what makes me feel better? Knowing that Mike ("I'm a Christian, a conservative, and a Republican, in that order") Pence must have sternly rebuked Donald Trump for his unkind and, dare one say, un-Christian cruelty to the family of Lori Klausutis.

Never take your blessings for granted. The Almighty will see to that. So always be grateful, no matter how small the blessing. He never sends a calamity except that ease follows thereafter. Keep connecting with Him; you’ll see how much ease and inner peace you get in your life.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday threatened to "strongly regulate" or even shut down social media platforms after Twitter applied a fact-check to two of his tweets this week. https://t.co/TWVhtoZEDk

Federalizing elections by mandating mail-in voting is a direct invitation for ballot harvesting and voter fraud. Twitter’s refusal to acknowledge that fact and their blatant attempts to discredit those who do is shameful & another example of why Americans don’t trust #BigTech.
